I got some Queen Anne's this past weekend that are similar to Rainiers. @ Tiffany - What a bummer you missed the Michigan cherries! I'm sure there are still some here at this week's markets. @ Ramona - I nearly missed the markets this weekend. Woke up late and sick Sunday, but dragged myself out to Dupont anyway! I had my heart set on Keswick's ricotta, buffalo hot dogs and soft shells. Was so glad they were all still there after noon. @ Sarah, My Sweet & Saucy & Kate - Thanks for visiting! @ April - not much of a recipe, but sure. Smash a couple (think I used 4 or 5) halved, pitted cherries in the bottom of a glass. Add a shot of gin and let sit for 20 minutes. Then add ice and top with ginger ale. You could also use club soda or tonic for a more tart drink, but I liked the ginger cherry combination. @ Jill - I never loved red cherries either.

I adore sweet and savory glazes/sauces for meat. I've used all sorts of berries to combine with port and stock to make reductions for pork tenderloin. I've been buying pork tenderloin from Costco. Two tenderoins to a package makes for great leftovers. They are unbelievably juicy. I didn't make it to any markets this weekend-I'm feeling withdrawl! Yum, great glaze for pork.

I can't wait to try that soon. I just got back from vacation in Michigan where I was looking forward to eating Michigan cherries, but was unable to find any anywhere! Thanks for the ice cream recommendation too. Oh man, that pork looks SO good. I can’t wait to try that soon.

I never liked cherries, but once when I was visiting my parents they had them and I tried them. So good! I haven't seen any here yet. I remember buying the organic ones at MOM's once for about $6/pack. But they were so good they were worth the price. I LOVE Rainier cherries.
